Things have really changed this month. I have gone for a few 3km runs not on the treadmill and the knee doesn’t feel any different than the other one. My left quad is about 85% the size of the right and everything feel great. I don’t really get the pain when twisting my knee any longer.
The popping is still happening but it doesn’t really bother me.
I saw the physio and he gave me some hopping, squatting and skipping exercises to do. He told me to do those for 2 weeks and then come back and see him for the agility exercises. I only got around to seeing him 1 week ago so hopefully next month I will be fully into the agility training.
I no longer feel like I have any injury. I am tempted to get back into the sports but I know that my knee is not quite there yet so I will follow the doctor’s orders and keep doing the exercises...
Hi Doug,
ReplyDeleteCan I ask if you went for the traditional LARS recon where the synthetic ligament is used as a "scaffold" for the ruptured ligament to mend on? Or did your surgeon go for the LARS only? I'm going for the latter.
